Greetings,

I have a flawlesssly working Exebyte 2G 8mm drive operating perfectly on a 
perfectly running 3.4 system.  

My question is whether or not there is a way to trick dump into not being
married to the idea of backing up one filesystem at a time.  I realize that
there are ports for other backup systems; however, I like dump's relative
simplicity and (obvious) availability (yeah, okay.  restore's interactive 
mode :)  On top of this, I have no need to store a 250M filesystem on a 2G
tape! 

Any hints, tips, blatent answers or redirections to a good FM would be
appreciated!

Regards,
Stephen
